Abstract
The structure-activity study on the phosphates of phosphonomethoxypropyl derivatives of purine bases interacting with human purine nucleoside phosphorylase has shown that the most efficient inhibitors of the enzyme are (R)- and (S)-PMPGp with Ki ~ 1.9 × 10–8 and/or 2.2 × 10–8 mol/l. The kinetic experiments have proven, with the exception of both enantiomers of PMP-8-BrDAPp, strictly competitive character of inhibition for all ANP monophosphates tested. Bromine derivatives exhibited uncompetitive and mixed type of inhibition as well. These results were confirmed by docking studies. The substitution of purine moiety with the bromine at the position 8 lead to an allosteric binding of these compounds toward the enzyme.
